Ok, just got back from a run into the gulf. Here's the data. Water pressure was 3.3 at idle, 10 at 1200, but 33 at 4200 when she dropped into guardian mode. The temp on vesselview was 167 on the stb engine. We measured the temps at the thermostat at 160, temp on the manifolds were 205. The vesselview alarm history said. Overtemp-Engine is overheating, check for plugged inlet. Water pump may be faulty.
From the data above the only number that appears out of line is the high end water pressure. In my understanding that should be down around the 20 range at the high end. My water pump should be good as it's new a year ago and I'm getting pressure. It appears that I have blockage somewhere after the water pump. Our plan is to drain, replace the coolant and clean the heat exchanger and thermostat. We'll run her again and if we don't see an improvement then we'll look into the risers.
We still don't know what sensor tripped the guardian mode. I'm suspecting the water pressure sensor. Does anyone know at what pressure it should trip the guardian mode? Also, is there a way to get more information such as that from vesselview?
